The latest culture methods and matters needing attention of Mei Mei

Prunus mume is a small deciduous tree or shrub of Rosaceae. The beauty plum has high ornamental value and has a wide range of uses, which is basically available for viewing all the year round. It can be planted in the courtyard or as a potted plant, and is now widely used as a cut flower. So how to raise Beautiful Plum? Today, the editor has brought you the breeding methods and points for attention of Meimei. Let's take a look at it.

1. Planting conditions

Mei Mei's requirements on soil are not very strict, but it is best to use loam as the main soil. Because the beauty plum is a hybrid variety, it has a certain tolerance to salt and alkali. However, it is still necessary to have a certain degree of fertility, the soil permeability should be good and relatively soft, to ensure that the beauty plum can grow normally. It should be noted that the waterlogging tolerance of Mei Mei is relatively strong, so we should plant it in a higher and dry place. At the same time, the beauty plum has a large demand for light and poor negative tolerance, if the light is not enough, it is easy to lead to poor growth of the beauty plum.

2. Methods of reproduction

Generally speaking, the propagation of Mei Mei is mainly based on two methods: striping and grafting. However, grafting is used more frequently, and the grafting time is generally carried out after the leaves fall in late autumn or before the trees sprout in early spring. Trees such as peaches or apricots can be used as rootstocks, while scions should be based on sturdy branches that are disease-free and pest-free in two years. It was cut into 4 full buds as scions, and the specific grafting method was divided into branch grafting and bud grafting. Its operation process is similar to that of other plant grafting, so there is no need to elaborate.

But if you encounter cloudy and rainy days, then it is necessary to timely drainage to avoid causing stagnant water to cause rotting roots. Fertilizer is also very important for the growth of Mei Mei. Before breeding, an appropriate amount of base fertilizer should be applied, mainly mature farm manure. Then in the flower bud differentiation, the appropriate application of compound fertilizer to promote flowering, and then less application. After each fertilization should be properly watered, do not fertilize too much, to avoid fertilizer damage root burning.

4. Points for attention

Beauty plum has a certain degree of cold resistance, but in the seedling stage, we should also pay attention to do a good job of cold prevention. After adulthood, Beautiful Plum can spend the winter in the open field, but the temperature should not be too low and keep it at about zero to avoid freezing damage. At the same time, it is necessary to do a good job of cooling in summer to prevent the phenomenon of wilting yellow leaves caused by high temperature. As I just said, Beauty Mei Xiguang, so we should also pay attention to maintaining sufficient light so as not to ensure sufficient light time and intensity in the dark and weak light environment of Mei Mei's long-term growth period.
